I am trying to design a logo and I am using a trial version of Indesign cs6. However, it will not let me "save as" an eps file. It only allows 'indesign cc template", "indesign cc document" and "Indesign CS4 or later". How can I save my logo as an 'eps' on a transparent background so I can use it in the creation of my business card?

But I don't have the option in my Indesign "save as" > "format" drop down menu. It is so frustrating.

I have been able to do it before, in Indesign cs6 on a PC.

When you save a logo as an 'eps' file you onle see the actual logo making it very easy and functional to work with when using the logo to create a design. When you save it as anythig else the logo appears on a white page. Like a letterhead. on a document.

I cannot reproduce the white background here when exporting an EPS file form ID, which makes me think you may actually have a white background on the page.

There is a fundamental difference between a fill of [Paper] and [None] that is not readily apparent on screen unless there is additiniona content behind. The [Paper] color is used to tell InDesign that you want to see the paper stock in that area of the output, so remove any other color that might be behind it (knock out a hole). The [None] swatch says don't add any color here, and let whatever is behind show through.
